“Soundtrack” star Christina Milian commented on French’s last Instagram post, a photo of him smiling. “You will be missed. 😢 Rest peacefully King,” Milian wrote. French’s post was flooded with messages from friends and fans following the news of his death. 

Melinda Shankar, who starred with French on “Degrassi,” as his character’s love interest, posted on Instagram. 

“@jahmilfrench you will always hold such a special place in my heart,” she wrote, sharing several throwback photos. “Thank you for being one of the most talented, compassionate, kindest, funniest friends I have. You were so loved. Sharing some of my fav pics over the years to highlight his bright light. I’ll miss our dance offs. #Bhandurner forever.”

Another “Degrassi” co-star, Annie Clark, also tweeted about French, sharing a video of him dancing. “Heartbroken over the loss of our friend Jahmil French,” Clark wrote. “This video is how I’ll always think of him. So full of energy and fun. He was always dancing. A true talent and a great friend. We will all miss you so much Jahmil.”

In another post on Instagram and Twitter, Clark said she started on “Degrassi” with French and felt a special bond. “Jahmil was a naturally great performer, an unbelievably fun scene partner and a beloved member of our Degrassi family,” she wrote. “I only wish I could have experienced his brilliance more.”
